RE: GGG vs Canelo: A Rant About Judging In Combat Sports

in #sports • 7 years ago

Thanks for the update man. I totally forgot about this fight. Of course, I missed it, but thanks for the judging summary.

"I'm not sure if I want to say Byrd is corrupt or not. It was an extremely wide scorecard"

I find boxing judging to be a rather frustrating affair, in general. I have seen fights so poorly scored that the HBO commentators were calling the fight fixed on the air (which, to me, is a pretty shockingly high bar!)

    Even knowing the result it's worth watching. But yes, the Pacquiao/Bradley fight, Pac's last fight, and last night stand out to me as fights where the commentators thought it was rigged.

    "Pacquiao/Bradley "

    This might have been the one I'm remembering, but I honestly just don't remember too well. I want to say it was about 4-5 years ago?

    Ah well, no reply necesssary. Thanks!
